Neuroscience-and-Psychotherapy-Meeting

Aim

Evidence-based psychological treatments, such as CBT, IPT, behaviour therapy and family therapy, have not yet fully benefitted from the range of dramatic advances in the neuroscience related to emotion, behaviour and cognition. Meanwhile, much of neuroscience is unaware of the potential of psychological treatments.

This meeting will bring together a range of exceptional scientists who are contributing to closing the gap, and examine how ECNP can provide the platform to meet this translational challenge.

Target group

Established scientists, junior scientists and ECNP members.
